The value of the warrant will calculated by adding the amount of the request, plus the court fee and creditor's costs (if granted).
A bailiff can only enter using peaceable means unless they have a High Court writ giving them the right to force entry.
Peaceable entry means that they cannot push past the debtor to get in though an open door, they cannot get in though an open window (the law previously allowed them to do so), they cannot climb over fences or locked gates; they can only gain entry though an unlocked door or unlocked gate.
If the bailiff has previously been admitted and is returning to collect payment or goods to be sold, then they have a right of entry to residential property even if the occupants refuse to let them in.
Social policy considerations, particularly the requirements enshrined in the overriding objective of the Civil Procedure Rules 1998, currently limit the goods which the bailiff may take.
The defendant may apply for the warrant to be suspended; this application must state reasons, for instance an offer to pay by instalments, and usually requires payment of a fee.
The court will inform the creditor of the application and require them to confirm whether they agree to the suspension and if not to state why and, in the case of an offer, what they would accept.
